People don't realize this, but even if the powder is fake, the law is almost as punitive if it was real. It's very much like robbing a bank with a "fake" gun. Just because the gun is inoperable, doesn't mean you won't be charged with and convicted of armed robbery. And, using the USPS to threaten someone is a federal offense.

If the person is ever caught, they would be charged with a litany of crimes. Very serious.

It is a dance contest. People need to get a grip. And the Palin’s need good security.

The PDSers will soon appear on the thread, claiming the story is a publicity stunt.

Somehow, I don’t think it was sent by the Christian militia.

Seattle’s NBC affiliate KING TV reported it in this morning’s news show, but just happened to leave out the part about Bristol Palin. Do you think they’d mention who it was addressed to if it had been addressed to one of Obama’s daughters, or Chelsea Clinton? Even the local “talent” here is so infected with PDS that they can’t even bring themselves to note a very important part if not the central part of the story.
